Description

This image was acquired with a one-shot color camera using an 8 in. SCT, around midnight on July 1st. For this image, the moon was 81% illuminated and was at an altitude of 34 degrees above the horizon. Seeing was quite good for this capture, particularly for my location.

A total of 10,000 frames were acquired for this image, with the best 25% included in the final stack. I used NeatImage Pro to remove some of the high-frequency color noise arising from sharpening.
